Mrs. Terri Thedford, LMHC, P.A.
About Me
I am passionate about empowering individuals and couples to unlock their potential and experience meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're seeking support for personal growth or working to strengthen your relationship, I offer a compassionate, holistic approach to therapy—grounded in clinical expertise, faith, and a deep understanding of the human experience. With over 25 years of ministry experience, I bring a unique blend of emotional, spiritual, and psychological insight into my work. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and life experiences with honesty and hope. As a trained EMDR therapist, I help individuals process and heal from trauma, anxiety, negative self-beliefs, and distressing life experiences. EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based approach that facilitates deep healing by helping the brain reprocess painful memories in a safe and structured way. Whether you're dealing with past trauma, current stressors, or unresolved emotional wounds, EMDR can be a transformative part of your healing journey. In individual therapy, I work collaboratively with you to gain clarity, set realistic goals, and develop actionable strategies to overcome obstacles. My approach integrates faith, clinical tools, and compassion to support healing, resilience, and growth. In my work with couples, I help partners build stronger, more connected relationships through open communication, mutual respect, and faith-centered principles. We work together to resolve conflict, strengthen emotional bonds, and restore trust and intimacy—creating space for healing and renewal in your relationship. Whether you're seeking individual counseling, couples therapy, or trauma-informed EMDR treatment, I am committed to walking alongside you with compassion, skill, and hope. Together, we can navigate life’s challenges and move toward the healing and transformation you desire.
